These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sift-market-research scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/datasift_core.py, scripts/extract_market_finder.py, scripts/generate_market_excel.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Sift Market Research

Automate market research using Sift's Market Finder combined with public data sources to produce comprehensive, actionable market analysis for real estate investors.

Mandatory Output Requirements

All data outputs MUST include a properly formatted Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx). Never use plain text files (.txt) or poorly formatted data dumps.

Output Type Required Format Template Reference
Quick Research Excel (.xlsx) templates/MarketFinderResearchExample.xlsx
Comprehensive Analysis Excel (.xlsx) + Markdown Report Use template structure
Data Exports Excel (.xlsx) Multi-sheet workbook

Output Rules:

  1. All tabular data MUST be in Excel spreadsheet format
  2. Use the template at templates/MarketFinderResearchExample.xlsx as the structural guide
  3. Include proper column headers, formatting, and multiple worksheets as needed
  4. Pairing a Markdown report with the Excel spreadsheet is encouraged for comprehensive analysis
  5. NEVER output raw text files or unformatted data dumps as standalone deliverables

Acceptable Output Combinations:

  • Excel spreadsheet only (for quick research)
  • Excel spreadsheet + Markdown report (for comprehensive analysis)
  • Excel spreadsheet + PDF summary (when requested)

NOT Acceptable:

  • Text files (.txt) containing data tables
  • Markdown-only outputs with no accompanying spreadsheet
  • Unformatted data dumps

Credentials

Use your DataSift account credentials (email and password from app.reisift.io). Never hardcode credentials in skill files, prompts, or shared documents.

Login URL: https://app.reisift.io/

Execution Mode Detection

Before starting, detect the execution environment to determine whether automation is available:

Check 1: Does scripts/extract_market_finder.py exist in this skill's directory? Check 2: Is Playwright available? Run: python -c "from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright; print('OK')" Check 3: Are credentials set? Check for DATASIFT_EMAIL and DATASIFT_PASSWORD in .env or environment variables.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
